Arjia Rinpoche has accepted Joanna Rotte's invitation to the
Philadelphia Shambhala Meditation Center on the evening of March
15th! He will be joining us at our center from 7-9 PM for an informal
talk about his life and journey followed by a Q&A session. Copies of
Arjia Rinpoche's book, Surviving the Dragon, will be provided for sale
and possible signing, as well.
Feeling like you might be in the mood for some snacks and social time
beforehand? From 6-7 PM, the "Monday Nighters" group will be hosting
a pre-talk community hour for new and long time members and friends of
PSMC. Light refreshments and snacks will be provided. This will be a
great opportunity to connect with fellow meditators while cultivating
a warm and inviting atmosphere for Arjia Rinpoche's arrival.
ARJIA RINPOCHE (Lobsang Tubten Juimai Gyatso) is one of the most
prominent Buddhist teachers and lamas to have left Tibet and is the
only Tibetan high lama of Mongolian descent. He has trained with

the Panchen Lama, and Gyayak Rinpoche. He started the Buddhist Center
for Compassion and Wisdom in Mill Valley, California, and in 2005, he
